The Porch Southern Kitchen & Bar

Restaurants in Forest Beach, Hilton Head Island, SC

Forest Beach

The Porch Southern Kitchen & Bar is the signature restaurant at the Beach House Hilton Head Island on South Forest Beach Drive, serving Lowcountry-rooted Southern cuisine in a setting that lives up to its name — open, relaxed, and designed around the kind of unhurried meal that fits a beach vacation. The menu anchors itself in South Carolina comfort food done with care: shrimp and grits, fried chicken, collard greens, and seasonal dishes that draw on the region's agricultural and culinary traditions. The bar program is strong, with craft cocktails that complement the food rather than compete with it. As a hotel restaurant, it's open to non-guests and worth seeking out — the Forest Beach location and the quality of the kitchen make it a legitimate dining destination rather than a fallback option. Reservations recommended for dinner. Call (843) 341-5050 or see the full menu at beachhousehhi.com.
